In Nigeria’s ever bubbling entertainment scene, beefs are not rare  but when it involves two outspoken internet personalities like street-hop star Portable and social activist VeryDarkMan (VDM), things always escalate quickly.

Once again, both men are locked in a fiery online clash, and according to multiple sources, it all began with a few words — and a resurfaced scandal.

How It All Started

According to Legit.ng, the renewed drama began when Portable went online to criticize VDM, accusing him of dragging people unnecessarily and using trending issues for clout. The singer accused the activist of constantly chasing fame by attacking celebrities and public figures.

In what seemed like a direct response, VDM reposted an old viral video of Portable from 2020. The video showed the Zazu crooner allegedly being beaten by a mob over accusations of stealing a tricycle and a mobile phone. The footage quickly made its way back into conversations online, sparking reactions from both fans and critics.

Portable Defends Himself

In a series of angry freestyles and Instagram videos, Portable responded strongly. He denied all theft allegations, claiming the video was from years ago and completely out of context. He stated clearly that he was never a thief and that the story was being twisted just to damage his image.

“I’m not a thief! Na enemies dey try spoil my name,” Portable shouted in one of his freestyles.

He didn’t stop there — he blasted VDM directly, saying the activist was only trying to gain followers and views by digging into his past.

VDM vs Portable: The Main Reason Behind Their Latest Clash

This isn’t the first time the two have clashed. As reported by Legit.ng, the tension between them started way back in 2023 when VDM publicly criticized Portable for beating up one of his team members during an event. That incident led to an online back-and-forth filled with insults, threats, and public drama.

In another twist, earlier this year, VDM reportedly tried to involve Portable in a controversial song project aimed at calling out a popular gospel singer. Portable declined, which further deepened the bad blood between them.

Their relationship has been rocky ever since, and this recent fight only added fuel to the fire.

Fans React Online

Nigerians on social media didn’t waste time picking sides. Some say VDM was wrong to dig up old allegations, while others believe Portable brought it upon himself by speaking first.
